The party on Saturday-Sunday night was held at the AER Lounge on the 34th floor rooftop and attracted a large crowd of celebs besides some gate-crashers.

Local resident Ashraf Khan – passing by at 1.30 a.m. when the celebrations were reaching a crescendo – complained about the loud music and also the vehicles haphazardly parked outside creating a snarl at that unearthly hour.

Since it was already past the official deadline of 10 p.m., police visited the hotel and imposed a fine of Rs.12,500, but the loud music continued.

After repeated complaints by Khan, the police again visited the hotel around 3.30 a.m. and slapped a second fine of Rs.12,500 on the hotel manager.
